Deep breathing, meditation, and self-awareness aren't always the happy journey we hope for Teens.

        Some teenagers know firsthand that these techniques in the MBPs  can backfire. Past traumas and ongoing post-traumatic stress can cause more harm than good.

        The meditative journey of some teens takes a troubled path.

        Symptoms of past traumas do not always recede After MBPs but there are studies that show that effects linger.

        It happens in two ways. One effect is temporary,

        Another is lasting adverse effects 'knowns' as MRAs.

        Seeing MBPs as meditative journeys we know these trainees are at risk.  This is true with a history of trauma.

          Traumas can be emotional but can also be physical or sexual abuse.

          Trauma can stop teenagers staying with the program.

          Studies showed that interactions caused negative outcomes from training. Physical and sexual abuse had measurable effects across the board. These included stopping the staff  from gaining positive results

          There are also mixed results on the successes of these effects across its demographics.

          Subclinical present PTSD symptoms were a cause of multiple types of hay so  PTSD symptoms in general made MRAs worse. A myraid of meditation problems were  Problems with emotional traumas top the list.

          Clinical causes of conflict come from two studies.

           Researchers looked at teenager who experience trauma for its cause.

         Childhood trauma hindered improvement even more. Exhausting to the core.

        Subclinical present PTSD symptoms were predictors of negative outcomes. Humans were not safe in these studies in clinical trials.

        These findings have important implications for implementing MBPs with teens.

          Trauma-sensitivity in the programs means more powerful interactions. Suitable for sensitive anoguies.

     Emphasis on safety monitoring though is unlikely.

      Programs must screen out teens at risk while viewing better training for  child.

        Dismay comes as a specific tone. Not yet fully comprehending. PTSD and traumas stripped of response.

     Programs looking to adopt MBPs for teens

     Need to prioritise trauma-screening. Teens who dealt heavily with trauma in the past may react adversely.
